I see that in a lot of threads, we have a lot of people talking about, asking about, arguing about JI and JA and other forums/sites of that sort.
Honestly, I'm sick of seeing it. The crying children. The fires and riots. The raping and pilaging. It must stop!
We are all registered and posting members at the Jurassic Park Database forums. There is absolutely no reason to go on about how "this forum is better than that forum" and "how this site sucks compared to that site." You know why? Because it's just a flame war wrapped in a stupid remark.
I'd like this thread to be act as a formal complaint to the moderators and ask that we start suspending people that continue on with this sort of stuff. It's all starting to get into flame wars and other unnecessary garbage that gets everyone nowhere. (However, it does do something for post count, let me tell ya.)
And, I think it's been said, however snidely, that, if you're just going to come and complain how JPDb is nothing like another site's forum, then I must say that I won't make you welcome here. If you don't like it, get out, as the saying goes. I don't care how big your other place was, or what kind of activity it saw. You're here now, a member of the JPDb forums, and you all should act like it. If this is just some pit-stop on your way back to wherever it was you came from, why bother? Sure, we need new members here, but we also need people who will contribute to the community and not make people want to leave our forum.
I hope I have people standing behind me on this one, because this is important to have a strong front on. Again, if you don't like the place, then leave, nothing's keeping you here.
